Chloe is one of the most amazing women I’ve ever met! She has a calming demeanor, and truly goes beyond the call of duty as a doula.
During our two visits prior to my “Labor Day”, I knew immediately that Chloe was a great fit. She was extremely knowledgeable, informative (great teacher), very understanding, intuitive, and a great listener. I really enjoyed our visits and probably kept her longer at our home than I should have! Visiting with her was like visiting with a longtime friend!
My water broke on my due date and I had to rush to the birthing center due to my group strep B status. I called Chloe and she arrived at the birthing center soon after we arrived.
She was attentive (without me feeling “smothered”) and made sure that I was comfortable throughout the whole labor. She recommended different positions that were very helpful. She made sure I had my JBL playing scripture music in the background.
Towards the end of my labor, Chloe intuitively asked me if I was ready for her to start the tub water after my contractions seemed a little more intense. Thankfully, she started the water when she did because I birthed Joshua in a shallow bathtub 4 minutes after getting in!
Chloe was with me from the beginning to the end and I can’t imagine not having her there. I wish she’d been there with my other three!
Several days after Joshua was born, Chloe stopped by to check on me and blessed me with some amazing lactation cookies, some beautiful roses from her garden and prayed a beautiful blessing over Joshua. She also wrote out Joshua‘s birth story from beginning to end… I don’t think she realizes how much this meant to me.
I can’t say enough wonderful things about Chloe! The Lord used her in my life in a big way and her presence during Joshua’s birth was one of the high points of 2022! ??
